Cranberry Sauce Two Ways

Better late than never, right?

So the next series of posts are based off the standard Thanksgiving dinner menu. In fact, I made these dishes a week before Turkey Day just because I knew I wouldn't be doing any of the cooking during the holiday weekend. What's funny is that I am the only one to have enjoyed this meal.

The following posts will cover what I believe are five of the more common Thanksgiving dinner options. They also are my top must haves at a holiday dinner. I will begin with cranberry sauce.

I love cranberry sauce. I use it instead of gravy on potatoes, I smother it over turkey and I drown my bread in it.

Normally I use the out-of-the-can stuff but as this is a cooking blog, it had to be from scratch. As I researched recipes and checked out possible options, one underlying theme came into light...

Making this stuff from scratch is ridiculously easy.

For that reason, I have below two recipes for cranberry sauce. One is a standard traditional recipe. The other has a bit of a twist. To find out about the twist, check out after the jump.
